Development direction and trend of bulletproof vests
There have been three generations of modern bulletproof vests: the first generation was hardware bulletproof vests, mainly made of special metals such as steel and aluminum alloys as bulletproof materials. The characteristics of this type of bulletproof vest are: the clothing is heavy, usually about 20 kilograms, uncomfortable to wear, has significant limitations on human movement, has certain bulletproof performance, but is prone to secondary fragmentation. The second generation bulletproof vest is a soft bulletproof vest, usually made of multi-layer high-performance fiber fabrics such as Kevlar. It is lightweight, usually only 2-3 kilograms, and has a soft texture, good fit, and comfortable to wear. It has good concealment when worn internally, especially suitable for daily wear by police, security personnel, or political figures. In terms of bulletproof ability, it can generally withstand bullets fired from handguns up to 5 meters away without producing secondary shrapnel. However, after being hit by a bullet, it can deform significantly and cause some non penetrating damage. In addition, for bullets fired from rifles or machine guns, generally thick soft bulletproof vests are difficult to resist. The third generation bulletproof vest is a composite bulletproof vest. The main development direction of bulletproof vests is usually to use lightweight ceramic sheets as the outer layer and high-performance fiber fabrics such as Kevlar as the inner layer.
